Bartlett Hybrid

Market Character & Performance

A valuable market variety noted for its excellent shipping qualities. Positioned as an alternative where standard Bartlett will not succeed in the growing region.

Tree

Hardy in the East and throughout cold growing sections — suitable for northern regions where the standard Bartlett pear lacks sufficient hardiness.


Critical Gap: This 1910 source provides almost no identifying information about the fruit itself — no measurements, shape, color, skin features, flesh qualities, flavor profile, or harvest season are preserved in the original text. The entry captures only its commercial reputation and cold-climate suitability. Additional sources describing the fruit's physical characteristics are needed for reliable identification purposes.
